Hey, @MrStevenStiffler thanks for reading and commenting!
What I believe is the differentiation between Development Guild and the Product Guild will be is foundational offering the Product Guild would be providing the DAO.
The Development Guild is a great place for Product Teams to grow out of. The conversations surrounding new technology and project ideas are natural incubators. We are even seeing relationships forming between development and design guilds. There is a conversation to be had about supporting these product teams with product management toolsets, but it is not the conversation I am bringing forward here.
What needs attention as we look into the future is the Developer DAO’s strategies and goals, and most importantly deliberate thought into how these goals will be reached. I do not believe that this responsibility should only be granted the attention of a “product team under the development guild”, it would not suffice.
The Product Guild would be stewards of the Developer DAO’s process to achieve its goals just as the Governance Guild are the stewards of our Treasury and the Writer’s Guild are the stewards of our Newsletter and Blog. A group bringing in Developers, Designers, Marketers, Writers, and Product people all working to ensure that the Developer DAO is building the correct products that tackle the very real problems we are facing, and the great opportunities we have in front of us.
